JAMES, Editor. The Anglo-Saxon Axis Prime Minister Mackenizie King made plans in advance for an Easter vacation in the U.S.A. As il tirxied out, however, his trip was mostly business with Presidexit Roosevet and higli officiais, ail concerned with advanced war plans. The result, as ennouneed by thc Prime Minister on bis re- lurn ta Ottawa, and tcrmed "The Declara- tien cf Hyde Park, " is anc o! the greet events of the war, . .. fer greater then ils' implications than "The Decleration cf Og- densburg." The feet ie that now there"cen bc ne Iurning back. We now have very def- initely, an Anglo-Saxon Axis, openly oppas- cd ta the Rome-Brin-Tokyo Axis. The stage, fixiaily, la set. There are a few steps yet ta be teken ta complete the picture, and these are obvious toa al, but thc Roosevelt-King taike aerved rnotice ta the world, nat forgctting Jepan, that Uic Anglo-Saxons and ail the might Ihat lhcy command and ail the resolute qualities inherent li the breed, are now on thc treck o! thc Hun and his ydlow-skinned heelera.

Our suggestion was "Iget this wastc galhered at once and prevexit profit- eering lii. We quate herewith extracts from the last letter we received from Ottawa authorily, iiearly 10 montbs ago: "Your letter bas been referred ta the writer . .. you have well covered the points of scrap collection . . . anid . . . regardixig your profiteering suggestion, the Depart- ment shail hope ta exercise sanie contrai over this . .. il looks as though farmers and cit.y folks would be asked ta deliver their scrap ta a railroad siding anid receive its value etc. etc." This was officiai acknowledgmenit that the efforts of one humble community news- paper were appreciatcd and approved and thal there was prospect of immediate action. And so we informed aur readers. We sug- gested that they gather their serap and be- ware of profiteers and be ready for the gov- ernmeit 's cail, which wc cxpeeted would foilow very shortly. What was the resuit? Monîli followed inonîli witli no word. Other bcwildcred dis- tricts deveioped their own plans with credit and succeas. Meantime, truck after truck of bewhiskered scrap dealers froni the city toured tbrougl hce and gathercd scores of tons at chiseler's rates. These profileers gaI ini their work while the gàvernment elept. It took a year to work out a simple plan and system. What a wonderful war! Now Hon. J. G. Gardiner, wilh hs name an cvery piece of literature, has issued hie clarion cail, "Salvage of Wastc is Vital" and he goes on: ".Ail farmers are urgently requested ta gather up broken xachinery and tools. On the next visitito town, load up the cAr, truck or wagon, and cither give this scrap away or sell it to the local scrap dealer.

Manitoba Sustains Bracken -~As we go ta press we observe fromn the latcst reports that our predietion has been fulfiiled; Hon. John Brackexi and his coal- ition ministry have been returned ta power wilh an overwhelming majority. The is- sue was neyer in doubt ince nomination day when Mr. Brackcn and fifteen of has supporters were returned by acclamation. Of the miscellany in opposition, the ehief group was Social Credit with-nine candid- ates,' and of these, their leader Miss Salame Haldorson, only lady memberain the lest House, went down to defeat. e People o! Manitoba have again demon- strated that they recognize safe and sane leadership. They have approved and sus- taixied the leadership of Hon. John Breeken since 1922, and this renewal cf confidence means that, givexi healh, Mr'. Braekexi may extcnd hie record of continuons premier- sbip ir4to the 24th year . -aiid hli estUR a young man. Mr'. Brackex isl a Liberal-Progressive and opposition groups joined him in a coalition, probably for two reasons: Furet ta denon- strate that wartirne le a lime for a united front; and secondly, that thcy believe, out there, thet national unity and ecconmc sanity within Canada, eannt be achieved without giving effeet te the main provi- sions of the RowellSirois Report. John Breeken lias been foremost li Can- ada in pressing for ils consideration and adoption. Indeed, if the truth were tlid, it may be found Ihat hc vas the prime inover in hiseconstitutional xecessity away back in 1937 and bcyond. The Statesnmn heartily and sincerely con- gratulates Hon.
